Superstitions in the NBA

There has been superstitions inside the NBA. In the NBA, there are some Superstitious Players and Teams. Some of those are:

Jason terry from the Dallas Mavericks has been known to be superstitious. He wears the uniform (shorts) of the opponent the night before the game. Because for him, It makes him feel as if the game was starting sooner.

Another is from Mike Bibby from the Atlanta Hawks. Most of the time he chews and bites his fingernails during his games so that for him,he could come up into a good solution. Every time he would be given a timeout, he would be given a fingernail clipper so that he could continue working on his nails. Eventually, the clippers has been Bibby's superstition.

Another is from the team San Antonio Spurs. They have been know to be one of the greatest teams in the NBA. The Spurs rank third among active franchises for the highest winning percentage in NBA history. With the 2007 sweep, the Spurs have the highest winning percentage in NBA Finals history.

They have only missed the playoffs four times as an NBA franchise. You may be wondering, what's the superstition behind this? Based on my observation, the Spurs don't win their titles consecutively but every other year. This superstition began when they won their championship in 2005 from the Detroit Pistons. Who knows? Maybe this year the spurs would win. It would prove that my observation is right. Since they didn't win this years' championship.
